Wish they made the single player DLC available for download on its own for cheaper, have no interest in the multiplayer maps anymore, made the mistake of buying the snowblind map pack.

this would be good news if gears online wast an impossible shotty-whore fest, but it is.

The Meerkat5385d ago

ID IR A G 0 N your correct.

The shotgun ruins the MP game.
And the lag I suffer is so bad that its normally more effective to hit someone with it than try and shoot them.

Its the only game where I get lag so its not my connection.

ShadowMantis5385d ago

U actually bought it....um really
u actually thought it was good?

dirthurts5385d ago

I'm reluctant to drop another chunk of cash on the game though.

ShadowMantis5385d ago

Dude save ur money!That game doesnt deserve DLC u have to pay for.If it was free,then thats a different story.

dirthurts5385d ago

Is actually my favorite multiplayer game, so it's tempting for me.
The online is extremely competitive, which I really like.

I would like to think the maps would be release free later, but I don't know. If nothing else I won't buy them yet. I just bought Ghostbusters for pc. : )

bloop5385d ago (Edited 5385d ago )

It's a bit of a love hate relationship with Gears 2 for me. It is my fave multi player game, but only when it's working properly!!! They seriously need to do something about the lag/region search. When you have a good connection to host, I think it's the most fun you can have with an online game. But, when connection is bad, it's infuriating!! They need to refine the region search so it actually WORKS and searches for games in your region. And I do wish they'd gimp the melee and get rid of that 2 piecing crap, or at least get rid of the auto aim after a melee connects. I haven't bought any of the other map packs so this is tempting. I may get it.

dirthurts5385d ago

about the lag thing. That can be really irritating. And you can't quit the laggy match your you loose exp.
But they did fix the 2 piece, to an extent. Now you have a chance to pop off a blind fire, or sometimes roll away. But it's rare.

Ranking The Gears Of War Games From Worst To Best

The Gears of War series has been a consistent deliverer of quality for Xbox, but which games are the best?

KicksnSnares674d ago

Gears of War is my favorite video game franchise, and the Locust is my all-time favorite faction.

My rank list:
1. Gears of War 2
2. Gears of War 3
3. Gears of War 1
4. Gears of War 4
5. Gears of War 5
6. Gears of War Judgment (No Locust in multiplayer was a disgrace)

ChasterMies672d ago

Agree 100% with this ranking. The campaign in Gears of War 2 is among the most fun campaigns ever made. It’s been downhill from there.

Zombieburger638672d ago

I’d say gears 2 and 3 are pretty even. I absolutely loved both of them.

darthv72673d ago

2 is still my favorite but 5 is also up there (for me). Then I'd say 1, 3, 4 and Judgement. Tactics isnt the same type of game, so it seems odd to rank it among TPS when its a strategy game. So I make that one all its own. Pretty fun game too.

Jericho1337673d ago

The first is and has always been the best one imo - the story, the levels, the set pieces, the soundtrack - as close to perfect as a campaign can get.

I’d say the series had been on a continual downhill slide until 5.

Om4ever673d ago

Naaaan ... 2 is the best by far

MadLad673d ago

3
5
2
1
4
Judgement

I love the series as a whole, but 4 was pretty by the numbers, and Judgement was just ok.

LoveSpuds673d ago

I played them all since picking up a Series X about 7 months ago. Personally, I don't think time has been kind to the earlier games and they feel very slow and repetitive to play. Whilst the newer games may be prettier, they stick with the original gameplay mechanics too much in my view so as a whole series of titles, I think they are pretty average games.

Not to say they weren't fun and I have a lot of nostalgia for 1 and 2, I just think there are far better action games out there.

It's brilliant but personally liked part one more. It's the only one that had a near horror movie vibe to it in parts, the atmosphere was amazing.

Also, the commercial for it was 🔥🔥🔥

Neonridr806d ago

Mad World was such a perfect song for that trailer. I loved part 1 too just because it was so fresh at the time. The series has been solid, but experiencing everything for the first time was pretty awesome.

ChasterMies806d ago

Gears of War 2 has one of the greatest campaigns of all time. Carmine, all that juice, fighting inside a giant worm, and riding monsters.

Knightofelemia807d ago

Gears 1 and 2 will always be my favorite Gears titles. The scene where Dom find his wife and then has to shoot her was an epic scene.

monkey602807d ago

I always found that scene laughably bad myself. Fantastic game though.

1 will always be my favourite. Most were great with the exception of 4 being okay and judgement being terrible.

They still have the most satisfying headshots from any multiplayer game around.

lucian229807d ago

Nah I laughed, the acting was soooooooooo bad

KicksnSnares807d ago

My favorite Gears game list
1. Gears 2
2. Gears 3
3. Gears 1
4. Gears 4
5. Gears 5
6. Gears Judgement

Gears Of War is my favorite video game franchise. I can’t imagine how Gears 6 will look in UE5 after watching Hellblade 2 gameplay trailer

RetroCaptainSteve807d ago

Or if they remake 2 and 3 with that engine.

KicksnSnares807d ago

There is a rumored Marcus Fenix collection (Gears 2 & 3 remake) in the works at the Coalition. Hopefully, it’s true, but I doubt it.

Profchaos807d ago

For me you can't beat gears 1 the original was so fresh and revolutionary at the time.
Then basically I'd rank it 2,3,5,4 and judgement

Viljong807d ago (Edited 807d ago )

One of the reasons why i got the series x. Been fan since the first game.

myfathersbastard807d ago

Played them all recently on gamepass. Great games. But my favorites gotta be gears tactics. Don’t know why. I just had a blast with it lol

Atom6661149d ago

This is the correct answer.

nibblo1149d ago (Edited 1149d ago )

Close to my rankings but some differences. My rankings:

1. Gears 3
2. Gears 5
3. Gears 4
4. Judgement
5. Gears 2
6. Gears 1

People will hate on me putting Gears 2 so low but I always felt the graphics were too busy to the point of confusion and the combat/movement hadn't really improved over 1. Lot of cool ideas but execution wasn't the best as far as I'm concerned.
